The MAP sensor on a 2011 Kia Sorento equipped with a 2.4L engine can be found on the intake manifold where the engine intake lines are connected. Its primary function is to gauge the air pressure entering the engine. The Engine Control Unit (ECU) uses various inputs, such as air pressure and flow rates, to determine the appropriate throttle body opening duration. If the MAP sensor malfunctions, you might experience a noticeable rough running engine and see the check engine light illuminate. A check engine light typically indicates a disconnection issue between the ECU and the MAP sensor, prompting you to inspect and possibly replace the sensor.
